Oh, what a busy couple of weeks it's been! I've been hearing a lot about Spring Break plans. Whether you are going away or not, I pray you and your family get to enjoy a change of pace and some springlike weather.
It was so good to meet with each of you for Parent-Teacher Conferences! What a blessing to partner with you in the education of your children. Thank you for entrusting your children to my classroom.
